File 2024-1343
February 7th, 2024
On January 24th, 2024, people known to the Delta Police to be involved in the drug trade, were subject of a traffic stop in North Delta. Evidence of trafficking was observed in the car and the suspects were arrested; however, officers were unable to locate any stash of drugs.
Traffic Safety Dog Unit K-9 Ziva and her K-9 handler attended the scene. Ziva is trained in drug detection and went to work to determine if any illicit drugs were in the car. As a result of Ziva’s searching efforts, a large “dialer bag” of cocaine and fentanyl was located hidden in a compartment in the car.
The suspects have been released while investigators conduct further investigation, including lab testing of the drugs.
Good dog Ziva!
